Brilio.net - Oily skin is characterized by high sebum production by the oil glands, causing enlarged pores and a greasy and dull face. Although sebum is important for maintaining skin moisture, several factors can trigger its excessive production.
These factors include hormonal fluctuations, stress, hot and humid weather, as well as pollution and sun exposure. If left untreated, pores can become clogged with dirt, oil and dead skin cells, leading to problems such as acne and blackheads. However, solutions are available through special skincare products and effective natural ingredients.
One of the methods was shared by @dishabatra08 on Instagram as reported by brilobeauty.net on Monday (20/1) which uses natural ingredients in the form of roses and aloe vera.

Roses actually contain antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compounds such as flavonoids, polyphenols, vitamin C, and vitamin E. These substances make rose water able to help overcome inflammation and provide a stabilizing effect on the skin.
In addition, rose water also has astringent properties that help reduce and control excess oil production on the skin. As a result, the skin pores will be tightened so that the sebum that comes out will be reduced.
Viva Cosmetics is one of the local brands known for its rose water products. Not only is it priced affordably, its rose water is also considered a multifunctional product. Check below to buy Viva Cosmetics Rose Water on e-commerce.

On the other hand, aloe vera has long been known as an effective natural ingredient in skin care. Aloe vera gel contains anti-inflammatory compounds, antioxidants, and healing agents that help soothe the skin, reduce inflammation, and stimulate cell regeneration.
Not only that, aloe vera also has a moisturizing effect and helps control excess oil production on the skin caused by enlarged pores.
You can see how to use the two ingredients above through the following instructions.
Tools and materials:
